She notes that only eight of the 100 top-grossing movies of last year were made by women. “By the way, who was called the father of film?” she asks. “D.W. Griffith. He made his first film in 1908. But a secretary named Alice Guy in 1896 started making films because she worked for Gaumont studios. She made the first film, and she’s not given credit.”

Although many women in Hollywood have horrifying stories of sexual harassment, Streisand isn’t one of them. “I wasn’t blond enough,” she says. She recalls a strange experience she had as a 16-year-old Brooklyn teenager. “I went to a guy’s apartment once from the Art Students League. He wanted to paint me. He said, ‘The next time you come here, maybe I could paint you with your top off.’ I said, ‘Huh?’”

She didn’t know about Weinstein’s predatory behavior, although she had a bad experience with him. “I thought he was vulgar,” she says. They had a dispute involving the opening night of his Broadway musical “Finding Neverland.” “He wanted me to come there on his arm and sing a song on the album,” Streisand says. “I said, ‘No. I can’t do that.’” After she turned him down, he threatened not to work with her on future movies and said he wouldn’t be sending her any of his releases to screen at her home. “That kind of stupidity. So I thought he was a boorish guy.”

Speaking of which, Streisand has strong feelings about the president. “Everything he called Hillary, he is,” she says. The star was with presidential candidate Clinton in 2016 at the fundraiser where she slipped up and called some of Trump’s supporters “a basket of deplorables.” Streisand was playing doctor that day. “She was sick,” Streisand remembers. “I was giving her tea. I was like, ‘Here, these are good lozenges, and you’re coughing and you got to keep drinking liquids.’ I didn’t know she had pneumonia.”

Streisand has since had other conversations with the first female presidential candidate. “I said to her the last time I saw her, ‘You were just too smart.’” In fact, she’s not convinced that Trump beat Clinton. “I really believe she won the election,” Streisand says. “I’ve talked to senators from Michigan and Wisconsin. I do believe, like I believed during Bush, they were playing with those voter machines. And [Al Gore] lost by 537 votes out of 104 million. And now, in retrospect, Bush looks quite good compared to Trump. At least he’s not mean-spirited. He’s not a guy who is retaliating for what Obama did at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.”

Streisand, on some level, feels that Trump shares the blame for the recent Florida high school shooting, which claimed the lives of 17 students and teachers. “I think even that shooter was affected because Trump brings out the violence in people. He says, ‘It’s OK — rally, lock her up.’”

I ran into one near the end of the Catacombs, right after the Prowling Demon. At that point, though, I had no idea what it was. And I think somewhere else, too. I don’t remember much about the encounters. If I knew what it was, I would have paid more attention.

I have it, but neither have I yet received my USB-360 controller wireless dongle, I also am not sure yet I am ready to play this… all evidence seems to imply that once you start, you best not stop for a while or at least don’t take long breaks.

Dark Souls is utterly awesome, but I agree with the poster who mentioned that one must be 100% into the game. If you’re not with it, you just start dying pointlessly, and everything becomes a miserable slog.

You’ve got to feel CHALLENGED by deaths, not demoralized. Otherwise the game is just soul-killing.

I’m letting it sit for a bit. My wizard dude just got to the Capra Demon, and I got killed in 5 seconds without being able to move. I don’t feel like trying again for a while.

He did that to me too. I didn’t exactly ‘beat’ him I don’t think- I tried running up the stairs behind him and standing on the ledge, and his pathfinding went all glitchy- I was able to just hurl firebombs until he died.

I’ve done that quite a lot, actually. I’ve also done a lot of running away from big things to find the point where they stop following me, and then attacking them from there. I’m clearly a massive coward and a noob, but I’m a living coward.

Isn’t that what the game is supposed to teach tho? That blocking a half-ton warhammer with a shield is ridiculous and that in order to survive you have to take every advantage you can possibly get? I’ve never understood the outrage at camping or kiting or any of those so called “noob-tactics”. It’s just playing with your brain on. Let the awesome folk run headlong into the fire and die in a blaze of glory. I am hiding in this bush, firing the occasional shot and surviving. The ultimate test for this? Play ArmA… if a popular shooter tactic doesn’t work in ArmA, it probably doesn’t work in real life.

@Effigy_Power:disqusI mostly agree with you, it just feels a little cheap when I’m exploiting a glitch rather than genuinely outwitting something. It’s the difference between Doctor Who defeating the Daleks by walking upstairs and Doctor Who defeating the Daleks by getting the director to call a fifteen minute break and then setting fire to the costumes when everyone is outside smoking. But I’m totally with you on the times when it’s just plain cheap, but within the rules of the world.If something is stronger than you, and you need to compete with it, do not take up it’s offer of an arm wrestling competition.There’s a wonderful article over at the New Yorker on this topic:http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/05/11/090511fa_fact_gladwell
